Refer to engine section
Refer to engine section
Maximum engine speed not to exceed engine manufacturer's recommendation.
Refer to engine section
Reprime, inspect suction system for air leaks, and or clack assembly.
Check for air leaks or defective check valve.
Locate and remove obstruction. Attach strainer.
Check clearances between face of vanes and case. Should not exceed 1/32".
Inspect. Repair.
Inspect. Repair.
Compare pump pressure and flow rate against pump performance chart.
Reduce system pressure requirement. Increase pressure capability of pump.
Locate and remove obstruction. Attach strainer.
Check with gauge or measure vertical distance between water surface and
center line of pump, allowing for friction loss in suction pipe. Reduce rate of
flow to obtain desired lift. Refer to pump performance chart.
Decrease rate of flow
Refer to "Installation"
Repair or replace suction line. Tighten connections.
MAINTENANCE
PUMP LUBRICATION
Pump liquid end does not require any grease or oil for lubri-
cation. The mechanical seal is lubricated by water when the
pump is operating.
